Well if you don't succeed the first time try try again! I have and this time feels so different and I have done so well! I went to my nutritionist on October 19, 2011 and when weighed was in total shock and vowed to make the lifestyle change and now I have and have done well so far. The start weight on my tracker is from October 19, 2011 and have lost a lot more than I have ever in the first two weeks. I start on Monday October 31, 2011 walking at work for 1 hour a day three times a week. I don't like to walk because my back hurts so bad but since I have lost weight I can walk longer before it starts to hurt. So let's get this party started and get healthy! No Diet just healthy!

My Goals:
To get healthy! I know it is an overused goal but I really do I am not worried about how low my weight goes I want to lower my chances of dying at a young age.

My Program:
My program is watching portions, calories and choosing better foods like grilled chicken instead of fried chicken. Mixing it up is also something I am doing so I don't get bored with the same foods.

Personal Information:
I live in Connecticut and work for the Government no boos now I do not get paid what they say we federal employees get paid! I love my job and the military members that I work with daily. I am totally in love with my boyfriend and we are pretty compatible the most I have been ever with anyone in my life.
